    I stopped using women’s antiperspirants because the scents would make my armpits break out in hives and it wouldn’t stop my ungodly sweat. I use some kind of old spice that’s a gel stick. Can’t remember the exact scent lol. It works great, especially for underboob sweat. The smell isn’t bad either. 10/10 would recommend for women who are super sweaty like me

    I hate those manly male scents for true men™ so much. I’ve now switched to odorless deodorant which is so much more expensive but it’s worth it. And when I want to smell nice, I use a perfume.

    I require all my deodorant to be breeze scented. Either mountain or ocean. There are no acceptable alternatives.

    I’m a man and I’d much rather smell like vanilla and passionfruit. I don’t need more help to smell like fuel.

    I like oats and alps. Duke cannon thick is nice too, and has names like “naval supremacy”, which is cheesy, but I don’t get too hung up on it.

    Old spice is off the rails though.

    Cucumber scent is the shit. I’d take that over Mountain Spring any day

      so the other day I saw this liquid hand soap on sale and I got one of each color. I didn’t really read the scent since I’m not picky for hand soap, but after using it I got genuinely pissed it was cucumber. I’m sorry, but that’s horrible. After washing my hands it felt I spent the last hour cutting cucumbers. Who smelled cucumbers and had the idea of making a soap out of it?

        So you bought something without reading the label, then got mad about it, and it’s their fault for making a scent you don’t like? 🤣

          oh absolutely, it’s their fault for making something that should not exist in the first place.

        I once tried tar and sulfur soaps. Both of them were really weird in the beginning (who in their right mind smells some rotten eggs and thinks “we could make a soap out of this”?), but I got used to them after a few days and began to really like them. I should be on the lookout for them, so I can buy them again someday.

    Unsented roll on, because the smells they add to make it smells good actually make you stink more towards the end of the day. The white powder ones ruin shirts and Clough pores.

      Lol, rose-scented shea butter, starch and baking soda deodorant all the way baby. You apply it once a day, twice at most, it moisturizes and nourishes your skin, lasts all day, there’s no plastic and you get to laugh in the face of fragile masculinity.

        Throw off the shackles of Big Deodorant. Girls don’t need it since our body odor is generally much lower, and it could potentially be unhealthy for us.

        Also, girl smell 🤤

            I go to the gym 4x/week. I just… Shower every day. 🤨

            If you shave your armpits, you should look into aluminum accumulation in your breasts.

    Deodorant smells gross. People smell fine. Fkn state of the world, convincing humans that smelling like a human is bad.
